Heartbreak advice

I wish I had an answer that made it easier. Heartbreak is so painful, and so difficult. The way I’ve gotten through it is truly taking it day by day. Knowing and trusting that you WILL be ok - you just aren’t yet. 2 months is not that long, and there’s no correct timeline for healing. I usually fill any major gaps in my life with friends so that I can remind myself that I’m not alone. I also pick up more hobbies - little comforting video games, comfort shows that don’t require much thinking like sitcoms or reality tv, and really fill my time with those things. Time is the greatest healer, so it’s less about feeling better quicker and more about occupying yourself while the time passes anyways.

It’s very frustrating when you don’t receive support in your feelings. You are entitled to feel the way you do. You are her to work on yourself and find structure, coping mechanisms and any other treatment you may need. Unfortunately it is difficult for many who don’t experience things from your vantage point to understand what it feels like to go through the things you are going through in the very that you are going through them. As for break ups they are always tough! For myself it’s stages- sadness, abandonment, regret, anger - the rollercoaster of emotions. Then I find things to fill the time the person once occupied. Museum meet ups, pool or beach, boat rides, day trips upstate, movies, pod casts, learning something new, nyc free events around the city, reading or binge watching something I have been meaning to watch. And as they say this too shall pass. Lastly you are most definitely enough and then some. People break up because they aren’t a good fit, are in different places in their lives, want different things in their futures, grow apart etc. etc. etc.. Plenty of individuals without conditions break up every day. Keep showing up for yourself to work on you, you will find your person. Hope this helps, and remember that the way we see ourselves and treat ourselves shows others how to treat us. We are just as worthy as anyone else. So we must show up for ourselves, do whatever work we need, practice self care and self love- leading by example what we expect and deserve!
